	Burgenland, Austria
		The southern part of the Burgenland is a region of wooded hills, the eastern foothills of the Alps, with many castles built here in what was for centuries a frontier area, occupied by the Romans and later exposed to attack successively by the Huns and the Turks.
		The province of Burgenland was given its present name in 1920, derived from the common element in the German names of the former counties of western Hungary (Ödenburg, Pressburg, Wieselburg, Eisenburg); as a result it was initially planned to call it Vierburgenland (The Land of the Four "Burgs").
		Burgenland can claim no major monastic establishment and only a few churches of artistic merit, although it has large numbers of castles and castle ruins, so that any study of its architectural history is almost exclusively confined to this field.
